Tuesday, March 10, 2015 - Medium yellow color.
Developing nose with a medium+ intensity. Aromas of baked lemons, tropical fruits, salty stones, toasted oak, baking spice and butterscotch. Very nice nose with a sunny and ripe feeling to it. Love that kind of salty note that made me think of warm stones at the shore on a warm summer day.
Dry on the palate with a medium acidity and medium+ body. The flavor intensity is medium+. Baked lemons, tropical fruits, green apples, apple core and oak. The finish is medium+ with truckloads of ripe lemons.
This wine has great balance, power and finesse. It has a freshness which I haven't found in many Sicilian whites before. Open for business today but I've heard that these wines develop very good over time so I don't think there's any hurry to pop your bottles.
